Home In Progress: Gallery Wall

Friends, I just moved. Well, it's been about a month and though we've been long unpacked, I haven't put anything up on the walls, until today....
Here's the thing, there's so much more wall space in this little townhouse than we've ever had before. Just looking at the blank spaces overwhelmed me. Putting holes in the walls feels like a really big commitment...especially when you know you'll have to fill them all in eventually. So, I wanted to be really intentional about placing each piece.


I found some inspiration this morning after a delicious cup of cold brew coffee at Burien Press over a good book and decided to just dive in.  Coffee = courage? 
My husband and I have an interesting style. We have to carefully balance a voracious love of cinema (especially of the 80's/horror variety -- think lots of black.) and a bright, vintage, eclectic feel.
I started with Mr. P.'s "The Breakfast Club" (his all time favorite movie!) poster as an anchor and built around it with my collection.


Some of my favorite pieces are hanging here. What do you think? This is certainly a work in progress, and I hope to continue to adding to our little dining room gallery. 
xo, Val
